Meal in a Jar Inc. - Waterloo, Ontario

First impression, the presentation of the foods surprised us. Such elaborate dishes though they were in take-out containers

Vegetables in both dishes were fresh!

I can’t handle too spicy foods, but the Spicy Dakgalbi was rather mild-spicy with favourably deep flavour.

For the Chicken Spicy Mayo Rice, the diced chicken’s seasoning was on the point, going well with the vegetables and the sauce.
The fried rice had rich, buttery flavour (black pepper added = 120/100)

Overall, a very satisfying dinner with no leftovers 🙂

For a healthy but appetizing dishes
They would even attract those people who don’t enjoy vegetables like my son who had it with me.

Will definitely order them again 👍🏻

We have placed many orders here over the years and never been disappointed. The quality of food is always top tier. Meals are delicious, healthy, and plentiful. You will be surprised at how much food is in the jar. As a man, I tend to eat a lot and one of these jars easily fills me up. So nice to have meals that are packed full of veggies and whole, unprocessed, fresh food. They make meals so easy and we love having them delivered. Our favourites are Cowboy Casserole (seemingly discontinued unfortunately) and Spicy Pork Bibimbap.
Lastly, I would consider prices fair when you think about how much you would pay to go out for (or order) fast food and probably receive lower quality and less food that likely isn't fresh.
Can't say enough great things about Meal in a Jar.

I love these mom and pop type places I had a bowl and it was really good and fresh...I'm going again ...I really liked the sweet hot sauce

I've been ordering Meal in a Jar off and on for a few years now, and the only reason I don't order every week is because it can get a bit repetitive -- the menu doesn't change (at least not since I've been ordering them). Having said that, the quality of the ingredients and the variety they do have in the available meals is excellent.

I love that there are dairy-free options for me (because of an allergy) right alongside the full-dairy options for my husband, but with lots of fresh veggies in each. I can actually stretch one 750ml jar into two separate meals (though they do become pretty light meals), so it makes my money go further, too.

I also love that the company will take back your empty jars to sanitize and reuse them for future orders. You rinse them, pack them back in the box, and they'll pick them up during your next delivery. It's really nice knowing there's no extra waste from the packaging, like you sometimes get with other meal delivery services. AND you have the option of local delivery if you're in the KW area, or you can pick up your jars yourself if you're close by and want to save the delivery fee.

Overall, I highly recommend these jars because they're delicious, fresh, super convenient and very low waste. A lot of them can be eaten cold straight out of the fridge since they're more like salads, so bonus points for not even needing to take the time to heat them. Some jars do definitely taste better if you heat them in the microwave or on the stove, like the Pulled Pork and Smashed Potatoes or the Mac and Cheese.

My only notes: I would love to see a slightly smaller jar option for anyone who can't eat the 750ml size, or who wants to go a bit leaner. And I would love to see a bit more variety, like a rotating or more seasonal menu. With those updates, I would definitely order every single week!

Our group enjoyed a healthy and nutritious lunch from Meals in a Jar. They were packed full of fresh and flavourful ingredients - clearly visible in the glass jars. It was a perfect option for our KWBWA "Out of the Box Career Talk" networking event at Distinctly Patio. Energizing food for the soul!

Outstanding meals. Lots of choices. Easy to make as some you just quickly heat up and other meals you just serve and eat. The whole process was easy, fast and on time. Will definitely do this again.
